Conor McGregor's father, Tony, was brought to the hospital on Thursday after experiencing chest pains.
Fortunately, Tony, 64, is expected to recover and soon be discharged, according to TMZ.
Tony is currently at a top-tier medical facility near his home in Ireland, per TMZ. Several family members, including the UFC star, are also in the hospital to show support.
Sources stated that Tony was brought into the facility on Thursday morning. However, after several tests, he is expected to be released soon. The cause of the chest pain is yet to be revealed, as McGregor is yet to comment on the incident.
